Hi smartmontools people: I'm trying to access SMART data on a known good SMART drive (80 GB WDC = WD800JB-00CRA1) attached to an Adaptec RAID 1200A as a simple drive (not = RAID confguration). (It has a Highpoint HPT370A chip). Running Windows = XP SP2, Device Manager has installed the hpt3xx.sys v1.3 drivers OK and = the two devices are properly installed under SCSI and RAID controllers ( = Adaptec ATA RAID 1200A Controller and Adaptec RCM device). Drive tests = OK with HD Tach 2.70 for speeds and CPU utilization as per expected. It's the fourth physical drive on the system ("d" designator). I've = tried hdd, hdd:a with errors. sdd and pd3 give mininimal device ID but = no SMART. I could find nothing in the mailing list archive. Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- Roy Zider |

These usually don't support SMART, even if the RAID functionality is not used. http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/#FAQ-win-ata-as-scsi Christian |

This controller's driver is likely implemented as a SCSI miniport=20 driver. These usually don't support SMART, even if the RAID=20 functionality is not used. http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/#FAQ-win-ata-as-scsi Christian: Thank you for the confirmation. I had read that part, but still = couldn't believe that it was an absolute inability to get any SMART data = at all. Adaptec is known for SCSI, of course, but still.. -- Roy |

If I need to access SMART data of SATA Disk behind it, is it a MUST to do some work on its Linux driver? Thanks in advance, Sam |
